Dimitrova, the last truly great dramatic soprano. Boy is she missed. Lots of screamers now.

[@arnoldamaral7406]

charleswhiterhodes don't forget the great international soprano prima donna Anna netrebko LOL Arnold Bourbon Amaral

[@judyjones2475]

@@arnoldamaral7406 only one Montserrat caballe 💗

[@dimitrovajunkie]

Thank God we at least have her Turandot and Abigaille preserved for posterity. In these two parts, she has few rivals.

[@dimitrovajunkie]

Yes, but it is still bittersweet. She was overlooked in her day. Other sopranos who couldn't cope as well with the difficulties of Lady Macbeth or Gioconda got the recording contracts and video documents. But no professional documents exist of Ghena in these parts.

dimitrovajunkie due to politics and the Soviet block Etc. Arnold Bourbon Amaral

[@SilfredoSerrano]

Maybe not professional documents, but there are bootleg videos of her in those parts. I've seen her Lady Macbeth

[@suffisance]

I totally agree. Anyway, she was one of the best that ever was

Ghena e Merighi un sogno.....Ghena stupefacente.....ho visto che qualcuno che ha nominato la Netrebko.....credo non sia tanto obiettivo...GHENA FOR EVER!!!!

[@MrPAPAGAYO46]

GHENA DIMITROVA y GIORGIO MERIGHI conforman otro grandioso Dueto de Amor, el mismo que diversas parejas de grandes solistas han igualmente interpretado con absoluta maestría y con un profesionalismo sin límites. Este dueto marca el cierre impetuoso de la Opera ANDREA CHENIER, original del gran compositor italiano Umberto Giordano y basada en textos sobre episodios reales de la Revolución Francesa, aunque los hechos narrados y los nombres sean realmente ficticios. La magnificencia de las dos voces, la fuerza expresiva de la música, junto con el vigoroso respaldo de los timbales y de los redoblantes en los pasajes más intensos de este cuadro final, hacen de este cierre uno de los más grandiosos jamás escritos en el catálogo de dramas históricos tipificados en las notas vibrantes y arrolladoras de este final.

[@MadameVkallasova]

Meraviglioso, t'amo Ghena!

[@alfredoloyola921]

Anybody knows what happens of Dimitrova.husband? After he died she Start to decline,some people said she was very depresed and then in 2005 she died too. She could not coup with The death of her husband.

[@jassenjj]

Well, she had 10 more productive years after his death, but generally speaking ... she was no more after this tragic accident.

[@eugeniogentili1048]

Giorgio Merighi Rip.🙏

[@jordipanadesribera6890]

Sembla rebaixat mig tò.

[@BusDeezy]

Merighi is my nanny's brother

[@suffisance]

so glad she gets her due now.

[@michaelashby1067]

I`d be singing a half tone down as well.......big difference for me an E flat or an an E in head voice......I`m a bass

[@madisonelectronic]

Please where can I write him?? Thanks!

[@arturoonzari5402]

but this transposed down

[@sugarbist]

A half tone down is acceptable. The final note being a B-Flat

[@arturoonzari5402]

it is not acceptable

[@luismanuel-tena]

arturo onzari To me, it is not acceptable either! If you cannot be faithful to the composer sing other roles then.

[@arnoldamaral7406]

Luis Manuel Tena why don't you both go away. She's at the end of her career. With that incredible big voice that she has at the end of her career it's really incredible. I would have been glad to be there. Now act like adults and behave. Arnold Bourbon Amaral

[@luismanuel-tena]

Arnold Amaral Act like adults? When adults do not share your thoughts they are not adults? When your way to refer to people show some respect the I will accept lessons from you. I am intittled tonan opinion and I have been very respectful. I do not like opera duets transposted. That is all.

Great but half step low
